The optional DIRECT PRINTER INTERFACE, p/n INN-8558-4, allows you to print directly from the RAMCHECK or SIMCHECK II to a printer, without the need for a PC connection. This option includes a special adapter, which connects to the SIMCHECK 16-pin IDC socket, and a special PAL chip, which controls the IDC socket.

Please note that the PC Communications package which is included with your RAMCHECK or SIMCHECK unit allows you to print all reports on your PC. This adapter is needed only if you do not have a PC near your tester.

Install the PAL chip into your SIMCHECK II in accordance with the instructions and drawings in Appendix G.4 of your SIMCHECK II Owner's Manual.

The adapter comes with a short 16-pin IDC cable that connects to SIMCHECK II's IDC socket. Your printer connects directly to the standard 25-pin D-SUB connector on the other side of the adapter.

NOTE: The DIRECT PRINTER INTERFACE is targeted for dot matrix and some inkjet printers, which can be purchased in a full or narrow-page format. Please use the free PC Communication program to print test reports on laser printers that rely upon device drivers installed on the PC.

Once you have installed the PAL chip and connected the printer, you can print the Test Log either manually, or automatically. Selecting either mode is done by entering the following key sequence during Standby Mode:

F2	Enters SIMCHECK II Setup Menu
F3	Enters Configuration Setup Menu
F4	More
F2	Selects Printer Modes

Use the left or right arrow keys to select the printing mode, then press F1 to enter your choice. In automatic printing mode, the Test Log is printed whenever you return to Standby Mode after a test. In manual printing mode, you can print the current Test Log by pressing F5 while viewing the Test Log.

NOTE: THIS ADAPTER IS COMPATIBLE WITH SIMCHECK II or RAMCHECK.
